Serial No. 514.597.

Tu all whom-'it may concern:

Be it known that I, WILLIAM A. FEA- nnaivfrz, a citizen of the United States, residing at the city of Rockford, in the county vented certain new and useful Improvements 1n Combined Gas-Burners and Hot-Water Heaters; and I do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description ot the invention, such as will enable-others skilled in the art'co which it appertains to make and use the same.

This invention relates to a combined gas burner and water heater, adapted to take interior recessed portion 12, the base 13 ot' which seats upon the tiange 4. l

The two sections may be secured together by bolts which are Ypassed through the iiiii may connect with a water tank or reservoir the place of the regular and ordinary burner i of any stove.

The primary object of this invention is to provide a device of this kind wherein the ame which is used for heating the water in the water compartment may, at the same time, be utilized for cooking or other'pur- I poses.

With this and other objects in view, the

invention consists of certain novel features of construction, combination and arrangement of parts as will be more fully described of the burner. F ig, 2 is a vertical transverse sectlon thereof, and Fig. 3 is a planview of v the lower section of the `device.

In the embodiment illustrated, the device which may be supplied from the city walter main. The coil at the opposite side ot' the upper section is also provided with or t'orms the water outlet 18, which is also interiorly threaded for connection with a suitable outlet pipe 19, which also connects with the water tank or reservoir. By this construction, the water passing through the coils is kept at the same pressure as that in the water inain and a constant circulation ot' water through the coils back to the tank or reservoir is maintained.

The central portions ot' the coils are provided with removable plugs 9.0, which may be removed to provide for the insertion ot' a suitable device for removing any incrustati (l faces of the coils.

The base plate 10 is provided with vcri tical openings l1 along the inne' and outer comprises a lower burner section 1 and an upper section 2, which is mounted upon the i ters with the central opening '21 ot the co.:

lower section and forms the water coils. The lower or burner section comprises an annular trough-like gas mixing chamber 3, provided with the central annular supporting flange 4, leaving the central opening 5, the purpose of which will be disclosed. The burner section is also provided with an annular exterior flange 6 which extends from the outer Wall 7 of the gas .chamber 3.

The gas inlet pipe 8 extends laterally from the burner section ata suitablepoint and communicates with the gas mixing chamber 3. The outer end as 9, of the gas inletpipe 8 is connected with the regular gas pipe of the stove in any suitable manner.

The upper section 2 comprises a base vplate 10, which is arranged over the burner section and is provided with the exterior annular depending flange 11, which seats upon the flange 6 of the burner section and with the sides of the water coilsl to provide t'or the passage of the gas tiame.

The opening 5 ot the burner section regisforniing section and provides an air vent.

I-Iaving thus described my invention, what I claim is:

1. A combined gas burner and hot water coil, comprising a lower burner section having an annular gas chamber. a gas inlet tube communicating with said chamber. a horizontal outwardly extending tlange formed upon the outer wall of the o'as chamber, an inwardly extending t'lange toi-med at the inner wall ot the chamber. leaving a central air opening, an upper section comprising a base plate having an opening to register with the air opening otj' the burner section. a depending exterior [lange to seat upon the exterior flange of the burner section and an interior fiange formed with an annular recess, leaving a shoulder adapted to seat upon the inner flange of the burner section,

ltlt) llt) and a series. of reversely bent Water coils on l the base of the upper section, the base of the coil, comprising a lower burner section having an annular gas chamber, a gas inlet tube communicating With said chamber, anvout- Wardly extendlng flange formed at the outer Wall of the gas chamber, an inwardly extending lange formed at the inner Wall of said chamber, leaving a central air opening, an upper section comprising a perforated base plate having an opening to register esaeee ner flange of the burner section, and aV series of reversely bent Water coils arranged on the base. *A l In testimony whereof l' have hereunto set my hanclin presence of two subscribing Wit- 25 nesses.
